Days after passengers complained of bedbug-infested rattan and metal chairs at Ninoy Aquino

International Airport Terminal 2, another video of a large rat running around the international departure area of NAIA Terminal 3 early yesterday has gone viral.

In a three-minute video clip uploaded by user Kerb (@ Curve251) on X, a huge rat can be seen scampering around lighting fixtures in the ceiling of the international departure area in NAIA Terminal 3.

"Hello NAIA, una surot, ngayon naman may daga sa international departure? Yung totoo?!?!" the X user wrote.

According to the uploader, the video was taken at around 1 a.m. on March 1.

Last Thursday, the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) removed the bedbug-infested rattan chairs at the lobby of NAIA 2, after two passengers complained on Facebook that they were bitten by bedbugs.

Pest control deals might be canceled

MIAA general manager Eric Ines issued a directive to conduct comprehensive facility inspections and enhanced sanitation measures following the reported bedbug infestation.
